The hotel in Oaxaca provides a delightful breakfast experience, convenient central location, excellent service, and impressive amenities such as a rooftop bar and pool, but may lack uniqueness.

Except for the bed being too soft, everything else was good.

The hotel is beautiful and well appointed. The staff is remarkable! So kind and gracious. They all took exceptional care of us and took pride in their work. We loved the morning breakfasts. The location is convenient to sites and shopping. We would gladly stay again!

This is a fine fine place to stay. The staff is warm and responsive, the room (with patio) was great, with a private patio that let light in almost like an artist. It is in a noisy part of downtown, but it quiets down a bit by 10 or 11 pm. The buffet breakfast was fresh, offered nice variety, and reminded us that we were no-longer in Michigan winter. Fabulous restaurants nearby. Our only not-so-positive thing is that the pool is quite small, and not heated. And the rooftop pool and lounge chairs can be quite noisy. But the terrific sun and warmth is worth it!

Amazing service - everyone who worked at the hotel was super nice; nicely designed rooms, with a comfortable bed; nice little pool on the roof; and great location. I had read about it being noisy due to bus traffic, and there was some noice, but it was not as bad as I had read about and I always got a good night's sleep. My only quibble is the price point - it is very expensive for what it is. Over $400/night and there is no gym, the rooms are on the smaller side, and breakfast does not include hot offerings (those are charged separately). It is beautifully designed, has a great vibe and really welcoming staff, but I might try someplace else next time that provides a little more value for the money.

Clean Trendy hotel - the location was great - so close to everything. The staff was extremely nice and helpful - we were always greeted with smiles and the question, "How can we help you?" They helped arrange a driver for our multi day excursions - the archaeological sites and surrounding artisan villages. Oaxaca is magical and Escondido Oaxaca hotel made our stay even better! Thank you!

I did not end up going to this hotel, so I can't comment on the hotel itself. For various reasons I had to cancel my reservation. However, I did interact with the front desk via email and they were prompt and helpful. I do want to make people aware of a potential billing issue. If you book your room through Marriott you will be quoted a total amount including taxes in USD. However, the hotel will charge you in Pesos using what the hotel believes to be the market USD/Peso exchange rate. The hotel uses PayPal to process the payment 7 days in advance of arrival. PayPal gives you two options: (1) PP will do the exchange and also charge a 4% fee, or (2) your CC company will do the exchange. ALWAYS use your CC bank to do the exchange. Unfortunately the exchange rate the hotel uses and what your CC will use will probably be different and you will end-up paying more in USD than what was quoted by Marriott (the Marriott reservation does not state that the USD amount is an estimate.) I did push back on this with the hotel and they lowered the Peso amount, but I ended paying about $10 USD more than the Marriott quote. It would have been $100+ if I hadn't pushed back. The hotel should take the exchange rate risk not the guest. They could have PP charge the guest in USD and then remit the Peso equivalent to the hotel.

The hotel is an architectural minimalist treasure. Yael Hidalgo front desk reception managed all of our restaurant desk and the service by the staff was amazing! Hotel restaurant is a hidden gem. Fantastic breakfast and delicious dinner. The hotel is centrally located and 10 - 15 minute walk to everything you want to see. Would not recommend the room we stayed in (Room 2) because it did not have sufficient windows. Would recommend rooms in the upper floors.

delightful and gorgeous hotel, well located in Centro as a base for exploring. Every detail is lovely and it's nice to return to the cool rooms after a hot day around town. Oaxaca is a dream! Hotel Escondido showcases locally made artisan products and welcomes each guest with a smile.
